It's obviously a great site, since it's basically downtown. The problem is the amount of money (and therefore influence) the NIMBYs in that neck of the woods hold. There should probably be a big pitch to overrule them, but that doesn't seem to have much momentum, currently. Given the situation with CUT, they're kind of ruining the whole project, as it relates to Cincy.

I think those are ad hoc terms for the water playground areas. "Runnel" sounds like a mix between "run" and "tunnel" -- a water tunnel for kids to run through, perhaps? I might be off base, but that's what I was thinking.

What was grim for Cincy?

Any idea where these people are expected to come from? Has there been an analysis of that?

Would it violate church and state separation if we held a blessing ceremony for the streetcar?

Superstreets OH Bypass 4 Just...wow.

^ How do you think the train should ultimately get to Downtown?

^ Did you look at the post above yours?

I don't do outside chores. I have nephews and nieces! Most likely it will be my brother who is mistaken for the domestic staff, since he and the kids are living at my parents house. Your brother? Even worse. I can hear the guy choking already!

Did the other potential "good news" fall through? Was it related to when that fed rep came to tell council to show its commitment?

Welcome back, 327! :wave:
What the hell is this? Job Czar Lee Fisher is Wrong for Ohio It's kinda hot, actually...I think the only effect it might have is getting some women/gays to vote Dem. Anyone think this is an effective attack ad?
^ Man, those people over six feet tall sure are imposing figures.
What happened to respecting the character of the neighborhood? A big glass rotunda in Pendleton?
Where did those renderings come from? The link just provides information on Washington Park, and I looked around 3C's website last night and couldn't find anything. Yeah, you have to click a couple times from that page. Here's a more direct link: http://www.3cdc.org/who-we-are/otr-work-group/OTR_WorkGroup_April%2027_2010.pdf
The solution is obviously to build more roads, so we can junk them up, too, and not maintain or clean the ones we already have.
Dictionary.com uses it this way, it must be true! vi·brant /ˈvaɪbrənt/ Show Spelled[vahy-bruhnt] Show IPA –adjective 1. moving to and fro rapidly; vibrating. 2. vibrating so as to produce sound, as a string. 3. (of sounds) characterized by perceptible vibration; resonant; resounding. 4. pulsating with vigor and energy: the vibrant life of a large city. 5. vigorous; energetic; vital: a vibrant personality. 6. exciting; stimulating; lively: vibrant colors; a vibrant performance. 7.

Thinking about it again, I'm realizing they are probably for a long stretch of road, and I can see where that would be an issue. Where I've ridden over them, they were just placed to slow people down for a school zone. So you'd ride over a few patches and be done with it. In that case, they aren't a big deal. Less jarring than streetcar tracks! The only solution to the debris issue I can think of is severe fines for littering.
I've ridden over those and they weren't bad. Maybe these are different, somehow.
July 4 - 14, Cincinnati (Ohio), USA The World Choir Games will take place in the USA for the first time. The city of Cincinnati situated on the borderline of the US states of Ohio and Kentucky will house the event. The city has a long cultural tradition including the oldest ongoing choral festival in the world, the so-called May Festival, that is arranged every year. The World Choir Games will start on 4th of July 2012, the US National Day, and choirs from all over the world will travel to the US and assemble in the colorful and fascinating city of Cincinnati. http://www.interkultur.com/competitions-festivals/world-choir-games/cincinnati-2012/
Not that anyone probably cares, but here's a little southern Ohio incest from some homegrown celebs. http://pitchfork.com/news/38658-robert-pollard-scores-pete-rose-documentary/ Guided By Voices is pretty awesome, BTW. Definitely one of the best things to come out of Dayton. (Just behind Scrabble!)
What an idiot! What is the point of going to Egypt is you aren't going to embrace the culture. She's married to an Egyptian? And he allowed that type of talk? It's not just Americans. A woman who works at my neighborhood laundromat is from India and one day she was going on and on about how many major American fast food chains are all over there now, like this was progress! But I guess to them places like Dunkin' Donuts seem exotic and new. Often, the quality of fast food overseas is much higher than what they sell us here. I wouldn't agree to that at all, EVEN with you starting that statement with "often". The quality is no better, but the portions are smaller. To get the same amounts of food as you get in America, you would spend through the nose. At least, this is true of Europe.
